Description
The nifty-dns-verify= TXT record verifies ownership during DNS zone registration. NIFCLOUD instructs users to remove this authentication record after confirming registration is complete.
Potential impact
Completed verification data remains unnecessarily public and can be confused with DNS records that are still needed.
Remediation
Confirm zone registration and correct name resolution, then remove only the relevant verification TXT record. Retain records required for services or other verification processes.
Examples
The examples replace the verification value with a service TXT value. If that service record is not needed, remove the resource instead of replacing its value.
Before
hcl

zone_id = nifcloud_dns_zone.example.id
name = "test.example.test"
type = "TXT"

record = "nifty-dns-verify=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
}
After
hcl

zone_id = nifcloud_dns_zone.example.id
name = "test.example.test"
type = "TXT"
ttl = 300
